I heard a noise downstairs. I laid in my bed, waiting to see if I heard another. Did I lock the door? I'm sure I did. I remember making sure my brand new door mat was still there. There it was, another noise. I grabbed my bat and went investigating. There, at the base of my stairs was a man, in a cloak. I said "Hey!" but the man was gone, no, he was right next to me. He bit my neck. "I didn't invite you in!" I exclaimed. Then I remembered the new doormat, the one that said "Welcome."
